As has become painfully normative, Hillary, the major media ask you all the wrong questions. The current controversy centers on whether you and your daughter Chelsea actually had to dodge sniper fire upon your landing at the airport in Tuzla in Bosnia on March 25,1996. The photographic evidence seems to suggest otherwise. But sniper fire or not, as you and I both know, this really was risky business.
As testament to how dangerous trips in and out of Bosnia could be, just nine days later, another U.S. Air Force plane carrying American officials took off from that same Tuzla airport and crashed “inexplicably” near the Croatian-Bosnian border. The crash killed all 35 people on board. Risky indeed! NATO command center would warn helicopter pilots searching for the downed aircraft to steer clear of active SA-6 surface-to-air missile sites within the Bosnian borders.
You understood the risk. In your memoir, Living History, you tell how you and Chelsea had to wear flak jackets and sit in a reinforced cockpit in case of snipers or ground-to-air missiles, and there is no reason to doubt you. The right question, Hillary, is not whether this trip was dangerous—it clearly was--but why you took Chelsea on such a trip in the first place.....
In Living History, you offered a more nuanced reason for your visit: “The administration wanted to send a strong signal that the peace accords were to be honored and would be enforced.” You also anticipated the question of why you and Bill would willingly put your 16 year-old in harm’s way. Your answer: the experience would help Chelsea “mature.” As the father of two daughters, I don’t buy that.

Oh please. Has he watched the bleedin' video. As everyone knew the 1st time she said it, it was a painfully stupid absurd lie. This was no more risky then going to a photo op in a major US city. Pure hysteric spin from Hillary's stoodges
1996 was an election year. 1996 and 2000 (also election year) that the clintoons didn’t order bombing of any country.
As we now know, 1996 was also a “Monica” year as well.
A lot of people have fixated on the Vince Foster story, but personally, I believe there’s more incriminating information to be learned reinvestigating the downing of Ron Brown’s plane.
MSM refused to pick to touch the issue of clintoon’s adultery until about 1998.
Hillary’s operatives moved the NDB transmitter to the mountain next to where it was published on the approach plates. The beacon technician was found dead (suicide) a few weeks later. The best guess is that the existing beacon(nav-aid) was turned off and a mobile transmitter was turned on, causing a desent into terrain while the published approach showed clear of terrain and obstructions.
The difference between Vince Foster’s death and Ron Brown’s death is ........ they happened at different times.
